Brian Keith Posted July 20, 2009 Share #1 Posted July 20, 2009 Here is an interesting chest, anybody know what it was supposed to carry? It is made to fit on the mule pack saddle. More to follow. BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Keith Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted July 20, 2009 Probably for a radio or support equipment for a radio set. Thanks, BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Keith Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted July 20, 2009 Thanks! Your photo shows the radio in a chest that is different form ours, so I guess ours is an accessories chest. Nice, is it yours? Or did you just have a photo of one? Now I know what to look for to fill it. BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinb Posted July 21, 2009 Share #6 Posted July 21, 2009 This used for the SCR-178 and SCR-179 (mule pack version) Field Radio Sets That's the CH-29 chest for the radio set. The CH-28 is for the accessories. Good luck trying to fill it. Some of the items are as rare as hens teeth. But if you find any duplicate items, let me know. I have one to fill as well.

robinb Posted July 21, 2009 Share #7 Posted July 21, 2009 I have to correct myself. Forum Support's chest is the CH-39. The CH-29 was not made to accept the legs as shown in the previous photo. Otherwise they are identical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Keith Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted July 21, 2009 Robinb, Do you have a list, or a link to a place that does? I bought a pretty big pile of WW II suprlus a few years ago, so I may have some componets if I knw what to look for. Thanks, BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Keith Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted July 21, 2009 Ok, I'm confused. Our chest is clearly different that the one shown with the radio. Our's is labeled CH-29, and looks like it is for spare parts/accessories. Ours does not have any provisions for the attachment of legs.

BKW Sorry for the confusion: radio sets contain several elements and often multiple chests. The CH-29 is used with the mule pack version of the radio set shown in the photo and is used to carry spare parts so does not need legs. The CH-39 is used for the "regular" version of this radio set.
